The Modern Age of the Mysterious

Chapter 23: Elopement at midnight

After getting that untitled record, Sean, who had been plotted many times, certainly wouldn't be reckless enough to start listening directly.

It happened to be a training day, and Sean brought a vinyl record to Guling Quest.

"Miss Catherine, I have something here and I want you to help me check if there is any danger."

Catherine glanced at Sean, then took the slightly outdated vinyl record and examined it carefully.

Sean focused his attention on the symbols, but did not diffuse the psychic substance.

He could see Catherine's hands holding the record, with a purplish radiance, constantly checking the record...

"Where did you get this record?" Catherine asked, staring at Sean with wine-blue eyes.

Sean briefly described the progress he had made, explaining the origin of the record. However, he hasn't told Catherine about his ability to sign, so he has also concealed the matter of solving Tom in the rain alone.

After checking, Catherine handed the record back: "There is no sense of curse or resentment, there is no danger in holding this thing.

"However, this kind of media, such as diaries and records, cannot activate its deep secrets without reading or listening." Catherine spoke very seriously, making sure that Sean listened. "So, if you're going to play it, or do in-depth research, there may still be danger. This kind of thing that may involve mystery, I suggest that you'd better get a license before doing in-depth research..."

Sean nodded, but thought in his heart: "If they take Arya out of New York City and drag it out for a long time, it will be difficult to trace. I can't wait!"

During training, Catherine was a little surprised by Sean's performance. Fighting and shooting are the basic abilities of explorers. It is difficult to master these two skills without years of accumulation.

However, Catherine found that Sean's learning speed is very fast, and some difficult movements, he can see it once; all the movements that he has learned once can be used smoothly without repeated practice to form muscle memory - even if only after After a few training sessions, his movements have become proficient, as if he had practiced hard for a long time.

"The strength of the soul means the container of the soul - the development of the brain." Catherine looked at the back of Sean who was shooting and thought, "The development of the brain means a stronger ability to learn and understand.

"In addition, he is now in a very dangerous situation, facing the threat of death almost every day. This situation stimulates his survival instinct and allows him to concentrate all his life energy to learn these skills of self-protection and strengthening. …”

Catherine looked at Sean's focused and resolute profile: "That's why he showed such amazing learning ability!" Catherine understood Sean's state of mind at this time. With a deeper understanding of her state of mind, she will be more realistic when she plays such roles in the future...

After training, Sean returned to the hotel with the record.

Without any hesitation, he put this untitled record on the record player, put the pointer on it, and started playing...

After a soothing sound of popping beans, an elegant female voice rang out. She sang a lingering song in the lyrical blues music. The main idea of ​​the song is that she is thinking of a man she met at a dance...

There was a knock on Sean's door. After opening the door, Miss Daisy stood at the door: "Oh? Are you listening to music?" Wearing a blue shirt and a pearl silk scarf, she stepped into the room, "You should relax occasionally..."

Sean didn't know what would happen during the playback of this vinyl record. He wanted to interrupt the playback, but Daisy grabbed his hand: "Why don't we do a dance..." Her eyes lighted smiling.

Rejecting a woman's invitation to dance can be as dangerous as facing a mysterious runaway. Sean sighed in his heart, secretly praying that nothing strange would happen, with a gentle smile on his face, in the lingering music, he danced with Miss Daisy.

The atmosphere is somewhat ambiguous. But Sean was a little nervous. It's not because he's not good at intimacy with women, but because he's worried that something like a corpse and evil spirit will appear...

The first song is over. The second song is sung by a man who expresses the joy of meeting his lover in light jazz.

Sean and Daisy looked at each other and smiled, and their dance became brisk...

"Do you know their story?" Daisy smiled, her earrings shining.

"Whose story?"

"Both of them" Daisy pointed to the record player, "Jason and Julia."

Sean was a little puzzled: "Have you heard these songs?"

Daisy smiled, again with the kind of smile she thought Sean was so silly: "Have you heard of it in the whole of New York City?"

Is this just an ordinary pop music record? Sean thought ~www.NovelMTL.com~ and said, "What's their story?"

"Both of them are well-known singers. They met at a performance. They fell in love at first sight and soon began to fall in love." Daisy seemed tired from dancing and pulled Sean to sit down, "However, For some reason, the two couldn't be together. But they were very courageous, left their flaming careers for love, eloped to South Del Continent, and never came back..."

Jason and Julia? An eloping singer couple? Does this record have such a story? Sean was a little surprised.

"This record is the last record they made before eloping." Daisy's green eyes shone slightly, as if telling the story was an adventure in itself, "There are three songs in total, the first "Your Eyes" , tells the story of their encounter.

"The second song is 'Tonight', which expresses the mood they feel every time they meet each other when they are in love.

"The third track, the song is called "Midnight Elopement," which is also the name of this record. It's the only ensemble track for Jason and Julia...

"This record caused a sensation in the first place!"

At this time, the second song "Tonight" had finished playing, and the speakers of the record player were making a blank popping sound.

The melody of the first two songs is very good, which makes Sean look forward to the third song.

The two sat silently relative to each other amid the long burst of beans, but the third song never started.

The long silence seemed a bit abrupt, and both of them looked at the record player suspiciously.

Then, in the sound of popping beans, there was a faint voice.

Sean and Daisy looked at each other with fear in their eyes.

Because what came out of the record player was not a song, but the voice of a woman complaining and crying...
